[sci.electronics] Nintendo from Japan

Greetings,

I have acquired a Nintendo-built video computer that was intended for
use inside of Japan.  Does anyone on the net know if it is feasable to
make the system function correctly in the USA?  I have the converter for
the power supply, but the nearest I can get on the video output is a
very snowy image.  Sound comes across fine.  Could it be just a
difference in the frequency of the output or something to do with the
television innards? (I am not electrically technical)
